Larne manager Gary Haveron singled out Andy Ryan as a 'clever striker' after his double secured a 2-1 victory over 10-man Bangor at Inver Park. Ryan's clinical finishing proved decisive, with both goals coming in a match where the visitors played with a man down for much of the contest. The win keeps Larne's season on a positive trajectory.

Haveron's praise for Ryan's ruthless edge underscores the striker's growing importance to the Larne attack. Securing three points against a Bangor side reduced in number highlights the team's ability to capitalise on advantage situations. This result is a key boost for Larne as they look to climb the NIFL Premiership table.

The victory provides crucial momentum for Larne's title challenge. Ryan's form will be vital as they face a congested fixture list. Fans will be watching to see if he can maintain this scoring streak and help the team secure a top-three finish. His partnership with the midfield will be key to unlocking defences in the coming weeks.
